border for a future Greater Kurdistan . One cannot
predict the future but it is possible

that in some future time the Kurdish areas of Syria and
Turkey will become part

of a Greater Kurdistan. That is why it is important to
establish the Euphrates as

the border to set a precedent . Also, if you look at the
map " Iraq Oil#2 " you will notice

that there are only 3 oil pipelines through which the oil
wealth of Kurdistan may be

exported . One of these is through Turkey . Due to the
historical hostility of Turkey

towards the Kurdish people it is possible that Turkey
could shut down the oil pipeline

from Kurdistan to Turkey . Therefore, an alternative oil
pipeline, the one that leads from

Kirkuk to western Iraq, may need to be included within
Kurdistan( option Iraq partition#2 ). Furthermore, the United States
would prefer to have a Syria that was bordered by a

friendly Kurdistan than an insurgency controlled Arab
Sunni nation , given the current

hostility between Syria and the United States . You will
notice that I have designed the

Shiite borders with the same idea .The Shiite nation
would also include

eastern Baghdad with the Tigris River as the border .
In Iraq partition#1 the Shiite region

would extend along the Tigris to include the city of
Sammara, which has significant

religious significance to the Shiite people.

I believe now is the time for an independent
Kurdistan . By cooperating with the

Shiite parties in the south who also desire a separate
Shiite autonomous region

or independent nation it will be possible for both areas
to become independent

nations. An oil poor, insurgency wracked Arab Sunni
region is no

longer in the position to prevent the creation of
independent Kurdish and Shiite

nations . You cannot wait for an indecisive United States
government to bring

a permanent peace to Iraq . However, you could certainly
point out to the U.S.

government the desirability of having a friendly Kurdish
nation in the Middle East,

one that would be strategically located between Syria,
Iran and an Arab Sunni nation.

Furthermore, you could also emphasize your support and
cooperation with the

U.S. government in its current dispute over the creation
of nuclear weapons in Iran.

I am certain that the U.S. government would look
favorably on the transfer of the

large Kurdish regions in Iran to the newly independent
Kurdistan . Furthermore, the Kurdistan government could allow the U.S.
to establish military bases in Kurdistan . These military bases would be
a deterrent to military interference by the governments of Turkey, Iran
and Syria which are hostile to the idea of an independent Kurdistan .

I hope you will seriously consider my boundary
proposals for the new Kurdish

autonomous region or ( preferably ) independent nation .
Now is the time to begin

the creation of a greater Kurdistan that will have its
genesis in Iraq . I hope you will forward this
email and attachments to Mr. Rebwar Fatah any of your contacts in
Kurdistan who are interested in these issues .
